Designed as a symbol of the structural-political evolution of a former mining district, the 118-foot Indemann Observation Tower in Inden, Germany serves as a visual representation of progressive planning for the future. Indemann features a transparent skin made of GKD Illumesh® stainless steel metal fabric with interwoven LED profiles.
Indemann is a popular tourist attraction featuring three observation decks that provide visitors with breathtaking views of the region. At night a spectacular computer controlled light show comes to life as vast light and color compositions. The intensive colors reflecting off the round stainless steel wires create the impression of a three-dimensional hologram. With over 40,000 LEDs, each of which can be separately controlled by computer, the illuminated Indemann symbolizes a bright future.
